Avoir ses règles, quoi de plus naturel ? Et pourtant, si l'on se penche sur la question, on découvre tout un monde fait de brevets, de prescriptions, d'appropriations, de gestes et d'adéquation entre l'image de soi et l'aménagement des espaces de vie. Affaires de transmission et de business – depuis un siècle, les produits menstruels génèrent des revenus colossaux –, affaires d'écologie et de controverse – depuis le scandale du choc toxique, au tournant des années 1980, jusqu'aux inquiétudes concernant l'impact environnemental des protections périodiques –, les règles sont indissociablement technologiques et psychologiques, sociales et physiques, intimes et politiques. En prenant la coupe menstruelle, née à la fin du xixe siècle, pour cas d'école, les auteurs déplient ces "affaires de règles " et mettent au jour, loin des logiques d'assujettissement des sujets aux objets, les pratiques qui s'inventent à la croisée des lois de la physiologie, des technologies et des contraintes du quotidien.
